There’s no question that the dating scene today is more complicated than ever.

The confusing blend of dating apps, meeting place shutdowns, and face mask protocols introduces all kinds of potentials missteps in the ancient dance of romance.

Cheer up – for I’ve discovered some simple introductions (aka “pickup lines”) sure to make clear in a heartbeat whether that mysterious stranger has potential – or at least a sense of humor. From RD.com, here’s some of the cheesiest of the cheesy to consider:

“If I could rearrange the alphabet, I’d put U and I together.”

“Do you believe in love at first sight – or should I walk by again?”

“Well, here I am. What are your other two wishes?”

“Anyone who says Disneyland is the happiest place on earth has clearly never stood next to you.”

“Are you a magician? Because when I’m looking at you, you make everyone else disappear.”

“I hope our love will be like the number Pi – irrational and endless!”

“I think there’s something wrong with my phone. Your number’s not in it.”

And finally – in a weird crossover (marrying the pickup line with the dad joke):

“Did you invent the airplane? Because you seem just Wright?”

Hey, maybe the right way to meet that special someone would be just to be yourself – no goofy lines, no attempted witticisms, just one real human hoping to connect with another.
